I’ll drown myself in silence
just to see the others floating
breathing in salt air
and soaking in the sun.
My reality is quiet, and dark
like the bottom of the sea.
No one in sight,
no one to confide in.
Cause if I open my mouth to breathe
and my secrets come out,
the storm forms and they scatter..
away from the girl
who swims alone
with her ghosts.
